Wrongdoers in Adarsh scam to be nailed: Navy chief

With several armed forces officers being investigated in the Adarsh Housing Society scam in Mumbai, Navy Chief Admiral Nirmal Verma has said all wrongdoers in the episode will be brought to justice and the government was taking requisite steps in this regard.

"Insofar as the Adarsh Society scam is concerned, the requisite steps are being taken by the government and I am sure that any wrongdoer will be brought to justice," Verma said in an interview to the Defence Ministry's official fortnightly 'Sanik Samachar'.

He said the armed forces have always demanded the highest standards of integrity and conduct from their personnel.

"Any incident, which smudges an officer's integrity, invariably has an impact on the morale of the men."
